My kids enjoyed Nemo. I did not go, not interested.
T3: Saw it last night. I saw the original when it came out, before it became a cult classic (which was about 3 weeks later) and enjoyed T2.
T3 is a bit different. Still some crazy machines and fights and chases.
Not Really Spoilers.
I think they overdid the car chases is terms of length, but then, so does eveyone nowadays, Matrix reloaded being the most recent egregious example of a ridiculously long car chase.
I enjoyed the presentation of Skynet, what it was, and why it ended up how it ended up.
The guy and girl, human, were pretty well cast. Not too pretty, not too handsome: plenty of imperfection that has to dig deep to deal with those pesky Terminators from the future.
Arnold was in fine form. The Other Terminator was an interesting new face, somewhat short of charm, and a bit over the top on its upgrades. However, considering how awesome the Terminator 2 guy was, I guess this upgrade, the TX, needed even better features. It has them in spades.
All in all, a nice little romp through the Terminator world in Southern california, a few laughs, and an ending that makes sense. I too enjoyed how the ending came together, and no, I will not spoil it.
If you like the other two Terminators, you will enjoy this one as well, it has enough of the old flavor and enough new flavor to please.
